When evaluated, output like the following (which looks prettier fontified in Emacs’s *scheme* buffer) is printed:

;;; BEGIN "Foo Station" TESTS

;; 1. Put two and two together

(+ 2 2)

;; ==> 4

;; Passed.

;; DEFINE: Bar function

(define bar (lambda (x) (+ x 42)))

;; 2. Bar scene

(bar 69)

;; ==> 111

;; FAILED!Expected:

;; 3. Full circle

;; 4. Multiple

;; ==> 4

;;"hi"

;;#\P

;; Passed.

;;; END "Foo Station" TESTS: FAILED

1.2Shorthand

The testeez syntax also supports shorthand or abbreviated forms, for quick interactive use, such as in an editor buffer while rapid-prototyping a function, and in a REPL while debugging. For an example of shorthand, the Scheme expression:

Future versions of Testeez will add additional features, such as custom predicates and handling of errors.

1.3Embedding

By following a simple convention, Testeez tests can be embedded in a Scheme source file with the code that is tested, while permitting the tests to be disabled and the dependency on Testeez removed for production code. For example, to use Testeez in a “Foo” library, one can first add a syntax wrapper around testeez like so:

(define-syntax %foo:testeez

(syntax-rules ()

((_ X ...)

;; Note: Comment-out exactly one of the following two lines.

;; (error "Tests disabled.")

(testeez X ...)

)))

Then, this wrapper %foo:testeez can be used in a procedure that executes the test suite of the “Foo” library:

2Interface

The testeez syntax contains a short string title and one or more forms, of the following syntaxes, which are evaluated in order.

(test/equal descexprexpected)

Execute a test case. desc is a short title or description of the test case, expr is a Scheme expression, and expected is an expression for the expected value (or multiple values). The test case passes iff each value of expr is equal? to the corresponding value of expected.

(test/eq descexprexpected)

Like test/equal, except the equivalence predicate is eq? rather than equal?.

(test/eqv descexprexpected)

Like test/equal, except the equivalence predicate is eqv? rather than equal?.

(test-define descnameval)

Bind a variable. desc is a short description string, name is the identifier, and val is the value expression. The binding is visible to the remainder of the enclosing testeez syntax.

(test-eval descexpr)

Evaluate an expression.

(exprexpected)

Shorthand for (test/equal "" exprexpected). This shorthand is intended for interactive and rapid-prototyping use, not for released code.
